GAME ON : Leeds Rhinos v Hull FC - 16:45:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Good to see sold out signs for any superleague game. Tickets selling well for the hull derby next week too. Almost guaranteed another 20k plus crowd. Good for the game.

One thing I hadn’t missed during the off season was the sound of Ben Proe’s voice. He’s dreadful.

And that fecking drum

Or the Leeds "musicians"

I know the shirts are different colours, but there is a bit of a clash with them both being dark. Perhaps an away kit could have been used.... or is it just my eyes.

Judging by your avatar, it may be your eyes.



Shorts colour difference is enough to mitigate a clash IMO.

Great try from Hull, bit soft from Hurrell trying to milk a penalty running into the back of Tuimavave.

If Hull score next this could be a beating. Look far too strong up the middle for Leeds, as expected.

Please STOP! STOP! STOP!

Leeds look no different to last year. Weak back 3 and poor in the pack and some have been tipping them to be up there lol

Brad Dwyer is dreadful, far too many mistakes.

Looks like Gale is resuming his Great Britain-England form playing for leeds...non existent

Yeah hilarious isn't it, is gale playing today

Hull look strong contenders to the title this season

Gale and prior leeds only positives. After opening 10leeds middle way too lightweight. What was agar thinking running with 2 backrows on the bench with ava missing. Not a surprising result.

Why are they letting off fireworks for Hull coming back onto the pitch?

Changed at half time. I rest my case. Knew my eyes weren't that bad

Writing was on the wall for this one when Konrad H got smashed by Ratu

it was a stupid decision in the first place to allow them on the field to start surly this could of been sort prior to kick off

0-24 can't blame this on injuries hull on another level

Awful this from Leeds, Hull far too good for them. To be fair though, most teams will struggle against Hull. On paper they’ve got the second best squad in the league.

This PTB thing is getting stupid.

They’re missing players not attempting to play it with the foot and penalising players who are playing it with the foot but being interfered with.

Most of those are looking for the penalty though

Good performance, certainly a few weaknesses in the B&W team but then all teams have weaknesses, just up to the opposition to exploit them. Hopefully we will in the derby...

Gale a positive? He did nothing.
